Question: We call a 5-tuple of integers arrangeable if its elements can be labeled a, b, c, d, e in

some order so that a – b + c – d + c = 29. Determine all 2017-tuples of integers n1, n2, …, n2017
such that if we place them in a circle in clockwise order, then any 5-tuple of numbers in
consecutive positions on the circle is arrangeable.

Question: A positive integer is called fancy if it can be expressed in the form 2a1 + 2a2 + ... + 2a100 ,
where a1 , a2 ,..., a100 are non-negative integers that are not necessarily distinct.
Find the smallest positive integer n such that no multiple of n is a fancy number.
